Incremental capital expenditures for the third quarter of 2020 totaled $8.1 million, as compared with $3.3 million for the corresponding period a year ago and $5.7 million for the second quarter of 2020.

Commenting on the third quarter, Dr. Patrizio Vinciarelli, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Despite supply-chain and product mix challenges, higher shipments of Advanced Products led to an increase in third quarter revenue. Bookings for Advanced Products grew across a multiplicity of applications and end markets. Our outlook for the fourth quarter is for a sequential increase in revenue and earnings per share. Capacity expansion is on schedule and vertical integration in our new manufacturing facility of all of the process steps required by Advanced Products should soon lead to shorter cycle times, greater efficiencies, and improved gross and net margins.”
